41 A peaceful sit together. (1/2)

”w-w-what are you doing?” (Sarah)

Sam lifted Sarah up from the ground, like carrying a princess, which both startled and panicked Sarah. However, Sam ignored her mood and brought her over the edge of the nearly-plane large rock, which he sat on before, and gently made her sit on it. Then he too sat beside her, and showed a smile: ”Just this.”

”can I hold your hand?” (Sam)

But even before Sarah could reply...Sam showed how thick-skinned he is, by grasping her hand.

{this bastard!} Sarah cursed inwardly. However, she didn't reject it. She let him hold her hand. It's just a decent touch! Is what she thought and is how she consoled herself.

Unknown to her she slowly started to enjoy the present moment... even though this fellow sexually harassed her! And even forced kissed her twice! But, surprisingly, just sitting beside and clasping hands with him somehow made her feel secure. Just like how her parents made her feel, but at the same time, it was different. And how this was different, the present Sarah couldn't discern.

Sarah suddenly remembered what she came here for, and couldn't help but reluctantly break the peaceful moment: ”Ten days from now, Angels Tomb will open. Finn, Angus, and I are going to enter it.....

Sam already had made some conclusion before, and now Sarah confirmed it. From Sarah, he authenticated that she was indeed here for the Ariel sword which was in the Angels Tomb.

However, form her understanding of the Angels Tomb, Sam knew Sarah... oops! Not just Sarah, but the whole mortal plane didn't know how significant this Ariel Sword was to the Tomb.

Not only was this Sword the most peaked treasure in the Tomb, but it was also the sole reason for the Angels Tomb creation! And not to forget it also holds some serious background and ominous origin!

And now Sarah wanted Sam to join them in raiding this Tomb.

Sam frowned, things are not as simple as you think, Sarah. Ariel Sword has its own Sword Spirit, and this Spirit is a lofty being. Taken her present Cultivation-Level it would be impossible for her to subdue it...unless a miracle happens!

{miracle...hmmm.... since you asked my help, I'll make sure the miracle occurs!} Sam confidently thought.

Since from the start, from when Sam lost himself into deep thoughts, Sarah calmly waited for his reply. She didn't disturb him; She was sure, that he would accept her invitation.

However, as Sam was taking his sweet time to think, she began to doubt whether he would accept her invitation! And don't know why she started to feel a little bit nervous!

Nevertheless, soon she was relieved by Sam's reply

”Ok, I'll help....” (Sam Dazer)

Happiness bloomed within Sarah. But it was a short-lived once; within seconds it was washed away by Sam's continuation: ”Of course at a certain price.”

”what price?”Since this fellow was a sexual harassing bastard! And a tricky fellow! Sarah turned cautious. She didn't want to get ticked by him again!

”Oh! *sigh* why did you turn suddenly clever, wife? you should have just said, you would do anything, like before.” (Sam)

{This shameless person! he really was up to something!} Sarah cursed inwardly. Nonetheless, soon she calmed herself and said: ”Hmph!...don't try to tick me again! Just tell me the price. I am warning you if you try to trick me again I'll take your answer as 'NO' and walk away.”

”I wasn't going to trick you; I was just going to ask you a 'Date'.” like a good little boy, Sam innocently said.

”Date?” Sarah was confused. She didn't comprehend what Sam means.
